Chinese IoT Vendors Face Scrutiny Amid India's Security Concerns

December 23, 2024

The dominance of Chinese IoT vendors in India's market has raised security concerns due to data privacy risks, foreign surveillance threats, and India's dependence on low-cost solutions from Chinese firms.
In India, where, on the one hand, digitalization is rapidly growing, IoT devices are being used in everything from smart homes to critical infrastructure. 

Industries are integrating industrial equipment with IoT to become technically robust so that real-time monitoring of equipment can be done and they can be controlled as per the requirements.
There was a time when Chinese smartphones covered the Indian market, and today, IoT devices are moving on the same path. The biggest reason for this is their market penetration strategy. They reach their target audience with devices at a very low price, which are much more affordable for the audience. Apart from this, there are some other reasons too, let’s check them out.
As we just discussed, Chinese vendors always work on cost-efficiency. Be it smartphones or IoT devices. Chinese companies work on two factors: one is mass production, and the second is operational efficiency. This makes it very beneficial for them to manufacture IoT devices. Their manufacturing cost is extremely low compared to their Western counterparts, making selling them at lower prices easier.

5G Capabilities to Have Limited Impact on IoT Connectivity Revenue

December 17, 2024

Transforma Insights reveals that 5G capabilities will dominate IoT connectivity revenues by 2040 but primarily due to future-proofing, with minimal uplift from advanced 5G SA functionalities. Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) have invested significant sums in upgrading to 5G. In increasing numbers they are also making the further step up to upgrading to a 5G Standalone (5G SA) core network. Much of the promise of 5G comes from the latter, giving MNOs the potential to deliver richer features and functionality including real-time latency, improved reliability, and ‘Quality on Demand’ type features. The combination of Network Exposure Function (NEF) and APIs also offers the potential to monetise 5G’s promise of the programmable network.

In this 46-page report ‘Monetisation of public 5G networks through IoT’, Transforma Insights explores the likely true revenue potential for MNOs by applying the additional capabilities of 5G (and particularly 5G SA) to the Internet of Things.

The report starts with analysis of the key elements of 3GPP Releases 15 to 19 that relate to 5G and IoT. The includes the key functions of 5G New Radio in the form of enhanced Mobile Broadband (eMBB), Ultra Reliable Low Latency Communications (URLLC) and massive Machine Type Communications (mMTC). It also considers features such as network slicing, 5G RedCap, Cellular-V2X, Non-Terrestrial Networks, Network Exposure Function, APIs, edge computing, and much more. Under each sub-section the report considers how the features and functionality could be applied to IoT.

ClearBlade Enhances IoT Solutions with New AI-Powered Anomaly Detection Component

December 16, 2024

ClearBlade has announced that a new Anomaly Detection Component is now available in Intelligent Assets.

 

Components are like plug-ins that can be added on the fly to Intelligent Assets, a digital twin connected to real-time asset data via ClearBlade IoT and Edge software. The newly-released Anomaly Detection Component elegantly incorporates AI into Intelligent Assets to extend functionality and end-user ability to take action quickly.

“One of the biggest barriers to IoT success is making data easy for end-users to see, understand and act on when repair or maintenance is required in the field,” said Aaron Allsbrook, the co-founder and chief technology officer at ClearBlade. “Now, Intelligent Assets customers can enable AI-generated anomaly detection as straightforward gauges and alerts.”

Andrea Lechner-BeckerChief Marketing OfficerLeadMDAndrea Lechner-Becker, Chief Marketing Officer at LeadMD is an experienced Marketing and Sales Executive with a demonstrated history of working in the marketing and advertising industry.

Skilled in Business Process, Marketo, Sales, Customer Relationship Management (CRM), and IT Service Management, Andrea is also a strong business development professional and a storyteller.

MEDIA 7: What inspired you to get into marketing?
ANDREA LECHNER: 
Frankly, not having better options. I originally attended the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse thinking I’d major in Archaeology. I wanted to be Indiana Jones! But, after visiting the archaeology building – i.e. the cold, dark basement of the science building – where a girl sat to piece together pieces of an old Native American vase, I knew archaeology was not going to be the right path for me. And so, without being good at science and a major in art or art history was unlikely to pay my bills, I decided to go into “business”. I originally registered as a management major, but took my first marketing class and thought it was more interesting and switched my sophomore year. That was pretty much it. I’d never been involved in business classes or DECA in high school – I didn’t really know what to do or what jobs in marketing were even possible. I dumb lucked myself into it really.

M7: As a storyteller, do you relate the brand to a story or story to the brand?
AL:
Both? Neither? I think there are stories in every brand, because there are people working on the brand and people engaging with the brand and people using what the brand creates. People, most often a single person, are at the heart of great stories.
You can start with the “point” of the story you’re trying to tell. Say you have a software that help accountants better create reports for board meetings. It’s likely you’ll want to tell a success story about an accountant getting promoted to CFO in part because your software helped better communicate their work product to the board. You could have the idea for that and go looking for that story in your customers. OR, you could hear that story, and say, “That’s amazing!” and share it with customers, partners and internal people. Stories are all around us – the most important thing is to keep your ears and eyes open for finding them.

Ed BreaultChief Marketing OfficerAprimoEd Breault, Chief Marketing Officer at Aprimo is a marketer with over 18 years of industry experience. At Aprimo, Ed is responsible for the global brand and growth which includes all Paid/Owned/Earned media, Brand Experience, Product Marketing, Industry Marketing, Influencer Marketing, Strategic Communications, Content Marketing, Analyst Relations, Alliance Marketing, Public Relations, Events, Demand Generation and Account-Based Marketing.

MEDIA 7: What’s your superpower?
ED BREAULT:
 I would say it’s applying the full spectrum of art and science that is required in marketing today. Not just left or right brained, but whole-brained strategy. Being human yet data-driven and really understanding numbers and (the right) metrics to make connections to business drivers. Add storytelling to that, so I can effectively communicate to my team, the CEO and CFO as well as my Board of Directors on those metrics, and connecting all that we are doing in marketing to the mission of the business. Then quickly shifting gears to the art and creative aspects of marketing that are required to engage an audience and tell great commercial stories that take complex concepts and craft them in a way that is interesting for people to pay attention to. I have to be the ultimate point of truth for the brand.

M7: At Aprimo, how have marketing leadership roles and responsibilities evolved over the past few years?
EB:
There are so many dimensions needed by marketing leaders today. There are several elements driving this evolution, it’s the new experience battlefront that is emerging and also marketers themselves driving changes. From a market perspective, there is a clear appetite for disruption and consumers are wanting more experiential elements to their buying experience and interactions with brands. Take a few direct to consumer disruptions like trialing products in-home, purchasing directly from a brand or even wanting to ensure that the producer’s trade practices are in line with the buyer’s or even a regulator’s for that matter. Then we want to try before we buy, and we emotionally care about the supply chain of products. Do we TRUST this brand to do business with them? Behind all of this is a story that needs to be told, and it is those marketers who know their audience well and make connections that will win the commercial game.

Back to the marketer, there are so many diverse backgrounds that marketers bring now and I’m really intrigued by those who have unconventional backgrounds because they contribute something uniquely new to the field. I love hearing about the marketer’s journey.
